envious of you being able to spend that long in the pool. If I arrived at opening time I could maybe push it to 1hr45 before having to leave for work have done a 5km in that time, but killed me for work.
Tempted to have a day off now and that'll give me 2.5 hours in the pool - see what I can do! haha
did a mile this morning - lazy style in prep for run and BodyPump tonight1 -
Usually my pool closes Sept 1st for Maintenance cycle.
They had 1 of there major water circulation pumps fail in May.
The 2nd pump started to leak water this week so the pool is now closed 2 weeks earlier than normal 0 -

Occasionally, on a Saturday, I'll swim 4 miles them go in to the 9:45 spin class. 0 -
4 miles today.
Pool heater must be having an issue. Easter was 86-87. Usually 80-82. Makes a big difference if I want to do sprint sets.
HAD to stick to straight pacing.
I forgot how warm 86 feels. I've done 88 in the past.0 -

just 1000m this morning
lazy freestyle and a few breaststroke. Just keeping moving after run last night!0 -
I'm not like a real swimmer like you all- started swimming again after 30 years sloth. My local affordable pool is weird size (17.5 meters) so cant do easy sets so I'm relying on my Apple Watch to tell me how far I swim.
Until today, for a variety of reasons including plain old out of shape - have only been able to do breaststroke for multiple laps.
Again, my swims look wimpy, but for a fat old fart getting her feet back in the chlorine- well I'm pleased.
Today: first swim 1250 meters. (Lap Breaststroke , lap crawl, lap Breaststroke , lap backstroke , lap Breaststroke and repeat). Second swim: 550 meters crawl - 15 minutes).
I will be trying to do 3 or possibly 4 swim days a week. I will need to put together some sort of workout plan.
Hello swimmers!

@ryenday everybody's swims count here. I am a late learner (sliding home to my 50th birthday this winter and took up swimming only 3 years ago). I'm pretty slow, and I'm sure that I don't have the most efficient stroke (I can only do the front crawl), but it gets the job done for now. I also take a water fitness class a few times a week, and I find that it is a great complement to swimming laps!
Welcome!!1 -
Forgot to post... I did swim this morning! Another outdoor swim. Pool closes in a week for the season, then the indoor pool will close for about 10 days for maintenance. Boo hoo! Got my mile in today, plus a few extra laps to round up to 40 and then "one more" for @fishgutzy , lol. 2

Yesterday, the pool was hot going in. Something up with the thermostat? Maybe.
Must have been at least 88F. Only made 80 laps.

Pool still above normal temp. Felt warm going in. Much prefer 80 or lower.0
